Product Description

Our culture is obsessed with being "cool." We strive for the next big thing, the newest look, the most impressive accomplishment; and as a result our lives are overscheduled, overworked, and filled with debt. What is the driving force underneath much of the busyness seen in our lives today? Why have we so easily bought into the importance of being "cool"?

Chasing Cool is a thoughtful, funny, and challenging exploration into the damaging web of self-centeredness and image control. Brett Rickey exposes the attitudes and misconceptions that often cause good people to get caught up in cool by relating the timeless Bible lessons learned by the Israelites to our lives today. He helps readers identify the pursuits of their hearts so they can start chasing what really matters.

This resource includes a copy of the book, Chasing Cool: Examining the Pursuits of Your Heart, and a DVD containing six short video lessons, which correspond to the book’s various chapters.

This unique packing is part of the In Sight Media Series, which combines insightful book content with stimulating visual instruction. This is a great resource for adult Sunday School classes, small-group discussions, and sermon enhancement.
